Decathlon

Looking to purchase a volleyball to take down to the beach? Inspired by the artistry of FC Barcelona to buy a new pair of football boots - gold ones that will give you the edge? Or maybe you're desperate to get hold of a decent pair of swimming goggles in readiness for La Tomatino festival? Whatever your sporting needs the chances are that the tri-tiered Decathlon, in Barcelona's Gothic Quarter, has what you're looking for. Three floors of specialist equipment for watersports, horse-riding, mountain climbing, golf, running, tennis and any other sport you can think of means that you have no excuse for not sticking to your exercise programme whilst in Barcelona. With a decent selection of homebrand products Decathlon is also extremely affordable.

Great store if you're into sports but short of a few cents. Picked up some football boots here for 15 euros. Perfectly good. This store in the Barri Gotic is on two floors and has pretty much everything you need.
